What is the shopping basket?

The shopping basket is your virtual shopping cart where you can place all products you wish to order. Everything in your shopping basket is stored there, so that you can easily collect various products there before finalising your order. For instance: you can place uploaded images from the inbox directly into the shopping basket and then continue to our online shop and select other products (mugs, posters, etc.) with a personal photo there. Then simply place the chosen product(s) in the shopping basket and order all products together in one order.

If you are logged in to your Pixum account the products are stored in the shopping basket, even when you close your browser, disconnect from the internet or leave your computer. Simply login to your Pixum account with your next visit to revisit your shopping basket with personalised photo products stored in it.

When shopping at Pixum without being logged into your account, the products in the shopping basket are stored there until the end of your session (until you close the browser). Naturally you can login somewhere in between, then the temporary shopping basket is immediately transferred to your Pixum account and will be stored there even after this session.
